What modem do you have?
What speeds do you get directly off the modem?
What firmware is on the router?
Make sure qos, access control, traffic monitoring, and parental controls are all disabled and then reboot the router.
What modem do you have? Netgear CM1000
What speeds do you get directly off the modem? Cox tech just left and using his meter shows about 600mb
What firmware is on the router? Just upgraded router firmware to V1.0.2.144
Make sure qos, access control, traffic monitoring, and parental controls are all disabled and then reboot the router. These are all off and have rebooted router with similar download speeds.Thanks
Not the cox tech, but you.
directly connect a pc/laptop to the modem and see what you get.
the 200mbps that you're getting, is that wired or wireless?
What wired speeds do you get?

the 200mbps that you're getting, is that wired or wireless? --->It is wireless, using iPhone. These are the same speeds i saw when the ISP was at Ultimate 300 speed
What wired speeds do you get? Wired thru a switch is at 330-350 via a Firestick device
